Not since “[Instant Crush](https://youtu.be/a5uQMwRMHcs?ref=glamglare.com)“, a collaboration by Julian Casablancas and Daft Punk has a vocoder been used so effectively and sort of topical as in “Astronaut”, the new glorious single by **[Mansionair](http://www.mansionair.com/?ref=glamglare.com)**. As a long time fan of the Sydney-based three-piece ([SXSW 2015](https://wp.glamglare.com/music/2015/04/03/mansionair-live-at-the-west-tent-for-the-aussie-bbq-sxsw-2015/?ref=glamglare.com)), I am overjoyed that Mansionair’s latest single is such a stunner.

And here I thought the effect was just some technical gimmick, but guitarist/producer **Lachlan Bostock** reveals more about the recording process:

> “We shoved a microphone deep inside a piano and recorded all the atmospheric noises that came out. Like what I imagined an astronaut felt as if he was looking back at Earth.”

What a fantastic idea! And those atmospheric sounds contrast beautifully with **Jack Froggatt**‘s warm falsetto, creating one of the coolest and most infectious songs of 2017\. Listen to “Astronaut”, our Song Pick of the Day:
